The next update will be available on Wednesday, December 18, in the early evening (GMT+1).

This update will not yet replace the Java version, instead it is the actual content update. We'll provide more information about the transition together with the update.

    Whenever i start the game it sais stuff like when you turn on the computer screen without consale it says signal out of range,is this a computer prob or the game does anyone know how to fix this? :evil:



    sounds like video card problem have you updated your video card drivers and no i dont mean by using the windows updater but going to the amd or what ever chipset you have website and downloading your drivers

    Gigs it sounds like the same issue I was having or very close. I deleted all of my server files except for the config file , new world folder and my scripts folder. I downloaded a fresh copy of the server from the site and it seems to have solved the endpoint errors I was having. When I did my updates in the past I would drag and drop and overwrite as necessary. Looks like the way for me to do it will be delete and re insert the server files.


    When i do a update i do it all new and fresh into a new folder with the date of the day i did it then all i copy to that folder is the world file the settings file and the script folder so all other files are new maybe they have a more updated server ill re download that and see anyway


    Cheers

    ok after looking at this i worked it out that the error was from the admin script


    so i removed the line by adding -- at the start


    -- Group management DB entry
    database:queryupdate("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS player (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, name VARCHAR NOT NULL, groupID INTEGER);");
    -- database:queryupdate("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS group (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, name VARCHAR NOT NULL, adminID INTEGER NOT NULL);");
    database:queryupdate("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS groupAdmin (ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, admin1 INTEGER, admin2 INTEGER, admin3 INTEGER);");



    this has fixed the error but what i want to now know is why was this line giving this error it looks fine to me

    OK guys i could not understand why users are not coming on much after the update so did some testing and found the server is now very unreliable with been disconnecting users and now users are giving up and playing other games


    how i tested i used another adsl line to logon to my own server the ping was around 100 with it spiking to 400 every so often but the game felt fine to play, but only after 10min of play i got DC from the hive and from the server i then had to reload the game to get back the connection then after 10 or so min bam got dc once more


    in the error file this is what i am getting client side


    Error details:
    java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
    at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
    at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
    at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
    at de.jiw.network.connector.tcp.TcpConnector.read(TcpConnector.java:92)
    at de.jiw.network.connector.ConnectorReadThread.run(ConnectorReadThread.java:60)


    on the server side


    i get Warning: No hosted connection found for endpoint 4
    tcpKernel gracefully disconnected
    pendingCloseEvent.add



    also the line Java.io.IOException:An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host


    Please Help

    Yeah and i still don't understand whats the problem with it.....


    same here why wont this square fit into place i too get this happen and for the lines running sideways on a iron roof just looks bad if we cant spin them why not add another block type with the same shape and texture but running another way

    Looks good Gigs. I see you also have used the halfblock street. We just did this over at server 2. Great realism look. I got to get in there an stake a claim. You are a truly talented builder. Cheers.



    Thanks mate same goes to you, yeah you should come build something be good to have you around a little :-)

    But rotating blocks won't solve all texture orientation issues ;) Especially when building a roof, you will most likely use ramps. Even though you can rotate them, you have no influence on the texture =O



    that's why i said spin the texture as this would help us when the texture is not running the way we want it

    I love the half bocks and understand that blocks are limited to one block per single cube space. However it would be great if we could do as yahgiggle suggest and spin or flip the blocks.
    I'm particularly thinking of the new half block which can only be placed in the bottom of the full cube it would be so much better if it could by rotated so it was in the upper half of the full cube, so it might be used in a ceiling or whatever.


    mmmm they do have that block and you use your arrow keys the move it up or down my idea is more about how some blocks cannot spin or anything the way i see it is if one block can then all blocks can also it would be good to spin the texture as say you want to lay a roof and the iron is running side ways this looks very bad so spinning the texture would solve this problem

    i was playing on my own so i was on when this happened to me so who knows also looked in the error log and did not find anything i have noted that over the night i get the odd DC on my server from the hive sometimes this last minits other times hours but it reconnects on its own this did not happen before the update and don't think its a big deal other than users may think our servers down when in fact its not our server
